This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boost Mobile. All opinions are 100% mine.

It’s crazy to see how much more affordable having a cell phone has become.  When I got my first mobile phone I had to pay per minute and long distance as well and it was expensive!  Now though, it is more affordable to have a cell phone than it used to be to have a home phone.  IN fact most people don’t even keep a home phone anymore because of how affordable mobile service has become.

Boost Mobile is one of these affordable mobile services you can get these days.  They have a program called Re-Boost where you can pay easily online, in person or by phone.  You can even make a gift to friends and family accounts easily without tying your card to their account.

  • Set up worry-free automatic payments
  • Make a one-time payment
  • Register your card for future payments

With affordable plans like this you can use your social networks from your phone.  I know without my phone I would be lost.  I use it for email, twitter, facebook and much more.  You can do all of this with a Boost Mobile Phone.

They have a ton of awesome phones to choose from including the Blackberry (which is what I have).  I also seen the Motorola i1 which looks awesome and uses Android software.  The Bali and Rambler looked pretty cool as well!  All of these phones make it easier to stay connected on the go!

The Motorola i1 plan is $50 a month you can get unlimited Talk, Text and Web!  this also includes unlimited 411, im and email!  That is a great deal!  I know people that spend nearly that on a pre-paid phone and run out of minutes before the month is even a quarter of the way through.  I think this is a no brainer on which is the better deal!  The Blackberry plan is $60 a month for unlimited Nationwide Talk, Text, Web and Email.

Take those prices and the easy pay options and you have one fantastic deal!  These are great phones with easy internet access, applications, cameras, video….you name it! Even activation is easy with Boost Mobile and you can do it right online! Browsing the site I seen they carry a ton of accessories and even have ring tones available for you all in one place.

The goal of SciGirls is to change how girls think about science, technology, engineering and math.  SciGirls ia a new weekly science show premiering on PBS and online.

SciGirls, which is funded by the National Science Foundation with additional support from ExxonMobil, integrates TV and the Web like never before. Each TV episode begins on the site’s homepage, where Izzie goes when she finds herself in jams that only science can fix. She surfs to the site, jumps into a video of real-life SciGirls, and follows their story, learning and exploring every step of the way. Izzie also invites viewers to hang out on the website, a totally safe social network where girls can create personal pages, design their own avatars, upload cool projects, and make friends. It’s all about tweens and screens in today’s multi-tasking world – the TV, the laptop, the phone and the iPod, and SciGirls is on them all!

You can checkout their awesome website by clicking here! There are a ton of science-based projects! Girls are encouraged to upload info about their own at-home projects and experiments too.

The site includes a totally safe social networking component, where girls can “friend” other girls with similar interests, as well as a feature in which girls can create their own avatar.   A lot of fun stuff for your girl!

Let me know what your daughter’s think of this new site!

Being a work at home mom is not as easy as some would think.  I seriously thought that it would have to be so simple to work from home…

HA<–that is a big fat HA!

Working from home means that every task you do will be interrupted about a million  times, making it take several times longer to complete.  Phone calls are made from the bathroom or outside.  My office during phone time is my front porch.  When the phone rings I snatch it and race outside where the caller can not hear the chaos.  Really though…it still rocks! It’s just not as easy as you would imagine.

I need more time, I need to be more productive in the time that I find….
